Harmony Singer The Guitar Pedal for Your Voice

Harmony Singer The Guitar Pedal for Your Voice
-

Surveys show that up to 75% of all guitarists also sing, and
with Harmony Singer TC-Helicon brings to market a
vocal stomp box that fits the needs of every singing guitarist out
there looking for production-quality Harmony, Reverb and Tone in
one easy-to-use pedal.

TC-Helicon has announced the worldwide availability of Harmony
Singer, which first premiered at Musikmesse in April. Harmony
Singer is a professional multi-effects unit that operates with the
simplicity of a guitar stomp box offering three key features:
Guitar-controlled vocal harmony, Tone and Reverb. It is aimed at
all guitarists wanting to add accurate backing vocals and pristine
reverbs to their repertoire.

Vocal Harmony

With Harmony Singer, users get up to two harmony voices guided
directly by the In/Thru guitar connection. In effect, Harmony
Singer is the perfect vocal arranger. It instantly analyzes the
incoming guitar chords making sure that the harmonies are always in
tune and on time. This frees up the user to experiment using
harmonies with all sorts of key and chord arrangements.

Tone

One of the mainstays of any TC-Helicon product is Adaptive Tone,
the combined workings of high-end EQ, Compression, De-essing, and
Gating that automatically adapts to the user's voice and vocal
range. The Tone button on Harmony Singer can be toggled on or off,
but when it's on it ensures smooth dynamics and clear presence for
any singer using it. It's like having a personal sound
engineer controlling the mix.

Reverb

Harmony Singer comes with three studio-quality Reverb types -
Room, Club and Hall - with adjustable level control. Harking
directly from the renowned lineage of reverb algorithms from TC
Electronic, a sister company of TC-Helicon, the sound quality of
Harmony Singer's reverbs is guaranteed to please the ears of both
pro and amateur guitarists alike.

Easy hook-up

Mirroring the simplicity of its interface, Harmony Singer is as
easy to connect to the PA as a mic - and it connects to the guitar
signal chain the same way as any other stomp box. The focus for
Harmony Singer is to limit the time fiddling with settings and
maximize the joy of playing, singing and sounding great.

In short, Harmony Singer is the guitarist's vocal backup group
and sound tech in one simple stomp box.

Tom Lang, Product Manager for TC-Helicon, comments:

"At TC-Helicon we're excited about offering Harmony Singer's
essential elements and simple controls to the hard working
guitarist-singers out there. These days it's hard to command
attention, and we see clear, captivating vocals as an important
asset. Corralling Tone, 3 Reverb types, 2 voices of vocal harmony
and effects mixing into such a small package can only benefit those
who seek to lighten the load while losing none of their impact. Our
dream is that Harmony Singer will become as much a piece of
essential kit as mics and guitars are to singing
guitarists."
